Reclining kevlar seat, should fit well in the RX7 given it's low height. Retails for $1700 and change, anyone have a street price on these puppies? Are there any vendors on the forum that can get these?

 

those are hot ****! i want them!! but, i would say street price is roughly about 10-15% off of msrp... still too rich for my blood.

Gias = $1725 list, plus $195 for brackets. Normal retailer is 15% off = $1632 EACH. Yikes!

 

So expensive~!

 

Cheaper than RZ seats though, and probably a bit more practical and comfortable. I heard Sparco has a reclining carbon seat now (not the Enzo seats).

Yes, I saw a picture in a magazine for the new Sparcos. Unfortunately, I can't recall what magazine, though I think that it was a picture from SEMA...

Now we just need a bleeding-edge Floridian to buy one of the new Brides and one of the new Sparcos, fit them in his CLR powered FD, and provide a nice review with professional photos. Hmmm, who could we get...

 

I've looked into getting these since the passenger probably doesn't need to be sitting in the same position as the driver. They are definatley nice seats.

 

those look crazy

 

Damn they are only $1100 here but still way too much....IMHO

 

They are on back order for 3 months and are a special order only

 

Too bad, but www.tees-usa.com doesn't list the dimensions for these seats. I do know that the XaxIIs that I have in my FD are a crazy tight fit. I mean they barely fit. These look like they're kind of wide. Guess we won't know until we get some measurements.

 

I've seen some pics from the TAS...one of the FDs there have em installed, so they will fit.

 

They fit, if you go to BRIDE's website the rx-7 is list'd as one of the car's that they will fit into.

 

20B 3rd Gen---There are a few places that have them in stock, but im sure thats what BRIDE would say to someone asking.

 

I saw them in an Options magazine that had the measurements and taking into account the measurements of the shoulder area of the FD, they will fit with an inch or two to spare I believe, if I remember correctly. But I know they'll fit and being tall I'm considering getting some still. At least one anyway.

 

Jason,
I'm sure you know of some places that have them in stock but we all are not fortunate enough to live in Japan I've decided to get me a set.

so sexy so expensive.

 

Well if you guys want to set a donation fund for me, I'll be happy to experiment and continue to push the "bleeding edge". It's a tough job, but someone has to do it

Is that $1100 for the pair or one?

 

One.

These are carbon fiber shelled reclinable seats, guys. You want cheaper seats, look at fiberglass shelled seats.

 

So far that's the cheapest place I've seen them for sale, better get them before the sale ends

 

Has anyone tried sitting in one? I've tried a few Bride seats and some of them have the shoulder things too close and its hard to turn the steering wheel.

 

I like them!!! Hope they seat well in an FD.

 

Hmm.. looks like it will fit fine..
